CREEL

Matthys makes creels for tufting machines:

• On a modular way

• With several options and lay-out

• Custom-made

Further advantages of our creels:

• A very strong construction

• No beams on the ground

  • Ergonomic

  • Easy to clean

  • Easy to put the bobbins on the creel

• A self-supporting bridging, not leaning on the tufting machine

Several executions and options:

• Adjustable lighting

• Platforms (different strengths and different coverings)

• Protections for platforms (in several executions)

• Corridor to knot the bobbin

• Built-in chariots

• Pressurized air with pistols and spiral tubes

Matthys also makes creels for semi- and full automatic charging of bobbins on inter changeable bobbin carts.

• Single spring holders - SC170-102/3: for low weight bobbins

• Single spring holder - SC170-105: especially designed for automatic creeling

UNWINDER

• For roll diameters up to Ø 900 mm

• With pneumatic roll lifting system for rolls of up to 950 kg

• Controlled fabric tension

• Edge guiding

• Unwinding shaft locking mechanism

Options:

• Walkway for a better access to the tufting machine

• Moveable step for a better access to the collector board

INSPECTION STAND

Inspection units are integrated right after the tuft machine, thus enabling an immediate repair of tufting defaults.

Configurations:

• Reparation of defaults just after the tufting machine

• Reparation of defaults just before the winding machine (tissue on rolls) or folding machine (tissue in carts)

• Double use: the fabric can pass in two different ways through the inspection unit at the customer's wish

Modular design allowing various extra features to be added such as:

• A control panel (with or without backlight)

• A compensation system with several rolls (separate or in a carriage)

• Spiral rolls and spreading rolls to prevent wrinkles

• A steaming unit

WINDER

• The inspected fabrics are wound on a batch winder
